Be careful. This part by Obama could be a fraud.

True. However, the fact that his father was not a natural born citizen, thus leaving him in violation of the Constitutional citizenship requirement is definitely ABSOLUTE AND UNDENIABLE fraud.
Ditto! It doesn't matter where Obama was born for all intensive purposes because, his father WAS NOT AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, and thus, Obama is not a natural born citizen and cannot be eligible to serve as POTUS under our Constitution.
It does matter where he was born. Unfortunately, even children born inside the United States to two illegal alien parents are considered natural born citizens. That's what the whole anchor baby issue is about. If Obama was actually born in Hawaii, regardless of his parents citizenship, he would be considered a natural born citizen.

Article 2, section 1 of the Constitution states, "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of president; neither shall any person be eligible who shall not attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States."

Notice if you will the addition of a grandfather clause in this paragraph which says a lot as to the meaning of natural born. Apparently, the framers understood that merely being born in the US was not enough to be natural born, otherwise the grandfather clause would not have been included.

This was the case because many of the delegates themselves wanted to be eligible for the office of president, but as the sons of British citizens, were not natural born citizens and thus ineligible.

By their own admissions, they were not eligible to serve as POTUS without the grandfather provision, which expired when the last person alive at the time of the ratification of the Constitution died.

Also, the Naturalization Act of 1790, also passed by this same congress, declared "And the children of citizens of the US shall be considered as natural born, provided that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been a resident of the US." Neither of these definitions, one from US law, mentions birthplace, only the parents' citizenship.

John Bingham, the author of the 14th amendment defined natural born citizen as: Any human born to parents who are US citizens and are under no other jurisdiction or authority."

The SCOTUS has yet to hear a case in which they have been asked to define the meaning of natural born as it pertains to eligibility, but if and when they do, it clear as to what the framers intended the definition of natural born to be insofar as being eligible to hold the office of POTUS.
